CII Carbon is one of the leading calcined petroleum coke producers supplying the western world aluminum smelters for anode production. Known as green coke and pet coke.







 

Rain CII's roots are in the aluminum industry, dating back to 1959, when CII Carbon, LLC began as the Carbon Division of Kaiser Aluminum and Chemical Corporation. In 1998, Rain CII Carbon (India) Limited constructed Asia’s largest petroleum coke calcining facility in the port city of Visakhapatnam, Andhra Pradesh state.


Rain CII produces three primary products: calcined delayed sponge coke used primarily by aluminum producers for anode manufacture; calcined delayed coke for titanium dioxide (TiO
2) pigment manufacture, and calcined fluid coke used as a packing material in anode baking furnaces. Other specialty calcined coke products are also made by special arrangement.

Calcined coke specifications for anode and TiO
2 applications vary from customer to customer. We produce run-of-kiln products which range from 1.5% to 4.5% sulfur and vanadium levels ranging from 150 to 500 ppm. The level of calcination is tailored to meet individual customer requirements. Contact us with your specific quality and volume requirements.

Calcined fluid coke specifications are standard. This product typically has the following composition: Ash = 0.7%; Sulfur = 5%; Vanadium = 0.2%; Bulk Density = 1.2 g/cc; Real Density = 1.9 g/cc. The typical particle of fluid coke is a sphere of 300 micrometers diameter.

In addition to producing calcined coke, Rain CII also produces steam and electricity from waste heat from the calcining process. Gramercy and Norco plants sell steam to neighboring facilities. Chalmette plant sells electricity to the power grid.  The Visakhapatnam facility sells electricity to various industries in Andhra Pradesh.
